Liaodong Prince's Mansion.

Gu Xiao bowed deeply to his ancestor and said, "Young man, I came here today to ask for something."

The ancestor also knew that Gu Xiao was going to conquer Xiliang. When he came here at this time, he was probably worried about thanking her for the wine, so he said, "Xiaojiu is my great-granddaughter. I will definitely protect her with all my strength."

"I am indeed worried about Jiu'er, but I still want to talk to you about something."

Seeing his solemn expression, the ancestor motioned to Grandma Chan to guard the door, and then said, "You tell me."

Gu Xiao then told his ancestors everything about the emperor using a woman's pregnancy to refine elixirs, Cao Zhicheng's belief that Xie Jiu had extraordinary abilities, and the search for poisonous insects from southern Xinjiang.

"I understand that the most important thing at this time is to repel Xiliang, but with these two people in the capital, I can't defend the enemy with peace of mind. I think that in order to fight against the outside world, we must first pacify the interior, otherwise, Daxia may be broken. "

If something outrageous and resentful happens in the rear, it will chill the hearts of the soldiers on the front line, thus affecting their morale. They are even more afraid that the emperor and Cao Zhicheng will do something irreversible when they are fighting the enemy with all their strength.

He couldn't give his back to such a person.

My ancestor lived through four generations of emperors and lived for nearly 90 years. He has seen everything dirty and rotten, the court is treacherous and unscrupulous, the harem and harem are secretly plotting, and the battlefield has been difficult and dangerous.

She thought that no matter how stormy it was, it would be difficult for her to lose her composure, but after hearing what the emperor had done, her chest still heaved violently uncontrollably. She punched the table hard, and the table fell into pieces, and her hands were numb. Awareness.

Anger made her forget to use her inner strength.

She confirmed in disbelief, "He actually cut open the pregnant woman and used her to make elixirs?"

"Yes." Gu Xiao's eyebrows were cold, "Besides, he is in poor health now and has become greedy for immortality. I'm worried that he will do something even crazier, so I want to ask my ancestors to keep an eye on him."

He knew that this was a bit embarrassing for the ancestor. Although her identity was the emperor's great-aunt, that was only if the emperor was willing to recognize her. If the emperor's relatives did not recognize her, the ancestor would be nothing more than a minister.

The emperor can punish the old censor to kneel in the Jinluan Hall today, but he can punish the ancestors tomorrow.

But the only ones who put down the world, really do good for the people of the country, and can suppress the emperor a little, are the ancestors.

This was the reason why he came to the Liaodong Palace first instead of ordering troops and generals.

"Absurd." The ancestor shook his body. An emperor who protects the country may be incompetent, but he cannot be without humanity. How is that different from an animal?

He also sent people to conduct a nationwide draft. Wherever there was a draft, it was clear that the lives of those women were taken. An emperor who did not regard human life as his destiny was the beginning of the downfall of a dynasty.

If the imperial brother knew that his grandson was no longer a human being, he would probably not even be able to cover the coffin.

How come...how could it be the turn of such a person to be the emperor?

It just so happens that there is a Cao family who acts as a troublemaker.

Could it be that her Great Xia Dynasty is about to run out of energy?

Now King Xiao is about to go on an expedition. In front of him is Di Rong of Xiliang, who is eyeing him. In the back is the emperor and the Cao family scheming. How will this battle be fought?

Her eyes fell on Xiao Wang's resolute face, and she thought of what he had just said, "You must be at home when dealing with foreign affairs," and she felt that she agreed with it from the bottom of her heart.

Otherwise, just a piece of food and grass can restrain the soldiers on the front line, but it is not allowed by nature for a son to kill his father.

We can't let Xiao Wang end up being criticized verbally and written down for the sake of the common people in the world, and her history books will be reviled by future generations. In the future, her coffin board will not be able to hold it down.

She took a deep breath, "Do you have a charter?"

Gu Xiao knew that her ancestor was wise and insightful, but at the same time she was also loyal to the imperial power. He originally thought that he would have to spend a lot of time convincing her, but unexpectedly, she didn't even say a word of objection.

The sensible thing made Gu Xiao's eyes water. What he wanted to do was a treasonous and unethical thing, but his ancestors did not mention a word about the worldly principles.

Rolling his throat, Gu Xiao took a breath and said, "Cao Zhicheng, taking advantage of his drink, will definitely cause trouble while I'm away from Beijing..."

He predicted and analyzed the possible next actions of the Cao family and the emperor, and stated his own countermeasures.

As the ancestor listened, the depression in his heart finally dissipated. There is still hope for Daxia.

But, "Xiliang has now occupied Shacheng, and the next target is Jingcheng. They must be sharpening their knives. How are you going to divide your time between the two?"

Xiliang can't wait.

Gu Xiao glanced at Aunt Chan's standing figure outside the door, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law of the Zhao family have the same fate as Jiu'er. The elder Yunwu and his wife are them."

The ancestor's expression condensed, and he was immediately overjoyed, "Are they still alive?"

"Ah."

"It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive." There was a smile on the ancestor's face. Yu Gong and Zhao Huaian were once the guards of Shacheng. They were relatively familiar with Xiliang. They were also former young generals, so they were more suitable for this battle.

Yu Zi, they saved her Xiao Jiuer, and she hopes they can live.

Gu Xiao continued, "Before Zhao's father-in-law left Beijing, he told me to find him in time if he was in trouble. A few days ago, I was worried that today's situation would happen, so I sent him a letter. Now they are on their way. "

Seeing that he was thoughtful, the ancestor didn't have much to say and made a promise softly, "I promise you that I will do my best to help you."

If the plan fails to go as King Xiao wishes, the worst she can do is kill that person with her own hands. Once underground, she is not afraid to face Huizong's brother and the late emperor to find out what the late emperor made and put on the dragon throne.

It's because they have no face.

After talking about the matter in the capital, Gu Xiao talked about Liaodong again, "Ancestors, Wen Qi and Sanlang also need to rush back to Teli in time."

Upon hearing this, the ancestors also came to their senses. They had been coveting Daxia for so many years. Seeing that Daxia was besieged by the two countries, they would definitely take advantage of it. The war in Liaodong would probably start soon.

Except for Lao Ba, who is in poor health, all the Wen family members have positions in the military. Once a war breaks out, they have their responsibilities.

After everything was said, Gu Xiao had a lot to do, so he said goodbye and left.

Sanlang and Qilang of the Wen family were called in front of their ancestors. After some explanations, they turned around to make preparations and set off immediately.

The ancestor stopped him, "Before you leave the capital, remember to say goodbye to your sweetheart. Run away without saying anything. Don't wait until you come back and she has married someone else. Then you will have no choice but to cry with your ancestor."

"What...what kind of sweetheart, ancestor, don't talk nonsense." Wen Qi looked a little unnatural, and unconsciously thought of Feng Zhilan in her mind.

The conscience of heaven and earth, originally he had no intention of getting married, but after being talked about too much by his ancestors, he was stunned.

From time to time, I will think of the words of my ancestors. In the future, when you get married, you can fight side by side, and you can ride horses together in the vast land of Liaodong to give birth to a little girl as heroic as Zhilan...

He actually felt a little yearning for days like that, and he felt a little uncomfortable when he got along with Feng Zhilan again.

However, Feng Zhilan still came to look for him generously from time to time. As time went by, he discovered many bright spots in her and liked her temperament more and more.

like?Realizing what she was thinking, Wen Qi's face was very hot, "Xiao Qi went to pack things."

He felt like he was running away. After returning to the yard and simply packing up his things, he paced back and forth in the house. As ordinary friends, he had to say goodbye before leaving, right?

I don’t know how long this battle will last. Will Feng Zhilan be so good at getting married?

meeting?

It seems not?

She once laughed at herself that when she gets married in the future, she will have to bring Wu Xin with her. No one wants to marry a wife who uses her sister as a dowry, so she has to work hard to make money and stay with Wu Xin until she grows old.

But since she is so kind and unintentionally well-behaved, there may not be anyone who doesn't want to marry her.

Especially when she was in Jiuxiao Pavilion, where there were many bachelors, the characters of Xie Jiu's subordinates were not bad, so they shouldn't care about her taking her sister with her.

So is it really possible for her to get married?

Why is it so hard to think about the possibility of her getting married?

The more Wen Qi thought about it, the more irritated she became. She raised her hand and punched her heart, as if to disperse something in her heart.

Mumu looked at him like this and said in a naive voice, "Master, if you can't bear to part with Feng Zhilan, there's no need to beat yourself up."

"I think you are wrong. The young master probably doesn't like Feng Zhilan, otherwise he wouldn't be entangled. It's a pity, but she is so good, he should be able to find someone who is true to her." Sifang said quietly.

"I heard that the wooden pile likes her." The wooden pile was so blessed that for the first time, he felt that he was really smart.

Sifang was surprised, "Is it a wooden pile? How did I hear that Wuwei likes her? They have known each other since they were in Yuyouguan. They usually go on errands together and are close to each other."

"I think their status is still a bit low. Feng Zhilan deserves better. She is Princess Xiao's handkerchief. It is not impossible that Princess Xiao will introduce her to an official in the future..."

Wen Qi couldn't listen anymore and kicked the two of them out, her heart becoming more and more clogged.

In the yard next door, Wen Sanlang was also circling in the room. He couldn't talk about his sweetheart yet, but the little girl in the Zhenguo Duke's Palace said that she liked him, and said that the Liaodong Palace did not have a mother-in-law to tease people, and said that she was weak and could be bullied. In the capital, He could not survive more than three years in the back house of a high family.

So I can only marry him.

He also asked Aunt Chan about the back house in the capital. It was as dangerous as the battlefield. She was so simple and delicate, so she was really not suitable for a house fight.

However, he had told his brothers that no one would marry. How could he, a grown man, break his promise?

But if he left like this, would she cry?A girl from the capital is about to get engaged. If he refuses, the Duke of Zhen Guo will find another marriage for her, right?Will she be punished...

After burning incense, Wen Sanlang and Wen Qilang met at the gate of Liaodong Prince's Mansion. The two brothers said goodbye in tacit agreement. Wen Sanlang said, "I'm going to the West Market to get a new saddle."

"Well, I'll go to Dongshi to prepare some medicinal materials."

The concierge was confused. Don't these things exist in the house?But before he could say anything, the two young men went their separate ways and disappeared.

However, Wen Qi ran away and Feng Zhilan was not there.
